Designed for professionals on stage and in the studio, the A18s is the final authority on flagship in-ear monitors that boast elite performance. Based on the world’s first 18-driver earphone, it provides the clarity and precision necessary for sound engineering with the warmth, power, and headroom demanded by musicians taking the stage.

Now including LID technology the A18s is our most capable and versatile in-ear monitor ever created.

Unique technology
Exclusive technologies that challenge traditional in-ear monitor designs to give you the absolute best listening experience.

tia™
A tubeless design that reduces resonance for a transparent and lifelike sound signature.

The tia system is comprised of three major elements: open balanced armature tia drivers, the tia single-bore design, and tia acoustic chambers. The U12t features two major elements of the tia system: the tia driver and the tia single-bore design.

The Tia driver is an open balanced armature speaker design for realistic resolution and transparency. By opening a balanced armature, the diaphragm becomes fully unobstructed, reducing resonance in the IEM and allowing sound to travel more naturally to the ear.

The Tia Single Bore is a huge advancement in eliminating unwanted tube resonance. The large bore itself serves as a sound-shaping chamber and aids the tia high driver in delivering a linear and coherent frequency response. The short sound path provides remarkable high-frequency extension and smoothness. The large single bore also allows for easier maintenance

apex™
Only from 64 Audio, apex alleviates listener fatigue by releasing air pressure sealed in the ear canal. This venting enables musicians and music enthusiasts to listen more comfortably for longer. Apex, or Air Pressure Exchange, is a pneumatically interactive vent that releases air pressure from a sealed ear canal. Apex comes in two variations, m15 (-15dB) and m20 (-20dB).

When you seal a miniature speaker in an ear canal, the air inside becomes trapped. Apex relieves this air pressure, allowing the eardrum to move naturally, so you can comfortably listen longer.

Freely moving air extends the soundstage and provides a more natural listening experience. It also preserves bass frequencies and helps the listener distinguish individual instruments.

3DFIT™
Our 3D-Fit technology preserves the detail of your ear impressions using a new process of digital rendering and 3D printing. Compared to conventional wax-dip moulding, this process reduces distortion in the impression for the most precise and comfortable custom in-ear monitors available.

A great fitting pair of custom in-ear monitors begins with a quality set of ear impressions. Each impression is digitally scanned and refined by our technicians to preserve each detail for a perfect fit.

Final shells are printed using our state-of-the-art 3D printer using a hypoallergenic, hard acrylic. The colours and materials we use have been specifically chosen for longevity and durability. These materials also allow the digital renderings to maintain their detail for optimal comfort.

Once shells are printed, our production team assembles the remaining components by hand. All 64 Audio Custom In-Ear Monitors are customizable and hand-built from your unique ear impressions. Wearing a custom-fit earphone helps isolate external noise and offers a more comfortable listening experience compared to most universal earphones.

LID™
LID, or Linear Impedance Design, enables a consistent, reliable sound regardless of what source. This proprietary circuit corrects the non-linear impedances of the drivers, restoring proper interaction with the source and preserving the desired sound signature.

Whether you're a musician plugging into a variety of gear at different gigs or studios, or an audiophile listening from low-impedance sources, LID ensures your IEMs are delivering the desired sound signature consistently.

Customer Reviews (4.6 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Steven F. ★★★★★

I was skeptical about the price, but the clarity during vocal tracking sessions is unreal—each note is so distinct. The 18 drivers handle complex layers without blurring anything, which is a game-changer for studio work.

Jacob ★★★★★

The first time I played a dense mix through these, the separation between each of the 18 drivers was so crystal clear I heard backing harmonies I'd never noticed before. They're incredibly comfortable for long studio sessions too, even with all that hardware inside.

Christopher ★★★★★

The soundstage is incredibly wide, letting me hear exactly where each instrument sits in a mix. The clarity from those 18 drivers is unreal for critical studio tracking.
